Disarming Gun Attacks

One of the most extreme and dangerous situations you can find yourself in.
The danger here is a life and death matter.
There is no room for mistakes.
A mistake means death.
Even in such an extreme situation there is still a window of opportunity which must be utilized.
This window of opportunity is the small frame of time where in the attackers head he has yet to fully commit to killing you.
This is the window of opportunity which you must exploit and save your life.
It is extremely important to understand that we are talking about scenarios where you are being attacked with a loaded gun and therefore if there is anything you can do to avoid trying to disarm an attacker, you will do so.
Ex: giving him money, talk to him etc...
Disarming of an attacker armed with a gun is the last resort.
It should only be attempted in a situation where you understand that if you don't act now you will die.
In any other case, attempt to defuse the situation by answering to the attackers demands.
Once you have decided that you are going to make an attempt to disarm the attacker you must realize that often it is very hard to prevent the first shot from firing and therefore you must be ready for a loud shot and not let it distract you from continuing the defense.
I have performed these disarmings many times.
I have also participated in training sessions where I was confronted with a gun loaded with blanks which is identical to a loaded gun in terms of sound and function.
This was done in order to measure the reaction time of both attacker and victim.
I can promise you that if you regularly train and practice these gun disarmings, the chances that in a real life situation you will be shot are very low.
It is very important to realize that an attacker has played out the situation in his head many times and has an idea of how the situation should take place.
You must play into the scenario that he has played out in his mind.
For example: you must look frightened and helpless.
you must raise your hands and beg for him not to shoot you.
The attacker is expecting this type of behavior and will feel relaxed and unaware if you act this way.
On the other hand: if you look completely calm and ready, you will reveal your intentions and your attacker will be ready, and maybe even increase the distance between you, therefore making a defense disarming situation very difficult.
As always with Krav Maga, you must react quickly and precisely.
